Below we have listed a few frequently asked questions ( FAQ’s ) to help you understand your treatment options for those who have developed a dependency to alcohol or have found themselves abusing alcohol.

What is the difference between outpatient alcohol rehabs, and inpatient alcohol treatment programs?

The alcohol patterns of use will be the determining factor as to what level of care will work best for your individual Alcohol Treatment Plan. Most people who enter into an outpatient treatment for their alcohol dependency are at a level where they have not yet found themselves physically dependent on their alcohol intake but have developed a pattern that they feel needs to be changed before it gets out of control. They will have more of an emotional addiction than a physical addiction to the alcohol they are abusing. Outpatient treatment programs for alcohol abuse can vary in their delivery of their programs in Kansas. Inpatient Alcohol Rehabs and Detox

Inpatient treatment for alcohol abuse and dependency is the most recommended form of treatment for combating alcohol addiction. When alcohol abuse develops into a physical need and physical dependency there will be a need for detox to make sure that the patient is stable before entering into a comprehensive treatment program for acute alcohol dependency. Program lengths for treatment at an inpatient alcohol rehab can vary from 21 days to 6 months, depending on the needs of the client and recommendations from the center.

The sad truth about drinking alcohol is that once you have developed a physical dependency to alcohol, the need for detox becomes medically mandatory. With medically supervised detox, the alcohol withdrawal process is carefully monitored and medications are administered to make the process safe and as painless as possible. The alcohol detox process usually lasts for 3-7 days depending on the severity of the alcohol dependency, while taking into account other conditions that are intertwined with the alcohol abuse issues.

If you are experiencing tremors “the shakes”, delirium or are having a hard time stopping alcohol on your own, do not attempt to stop drinking cold turkey. Doing this can have serious life threatening consequences. Give us a call immediately and we will get you directed to the best detox center in your county throughout the whole state of Kansas. 1-800-819-9973

Often times, when someone has underlying mental issues, they can turn to alcohol to manage their symptoms.

12 Step Programs and A.A.

Most alcohol treatment programs that are lower or free, will utilize the 12 step program as a guide for your treatment plan. The 12 step program was one of the first treatment models that showed significant results for alcohol abuse. The roots of the 12 step program can be traced back to the early 30’s and are still being used in conjunction with modern therapy models.

When you are looking at programs to either handle a heavy drinking habit, or you have developed a physical dependency to alcohol, it is important to take into consideration that the program you choose to handle your alcohol abuse problem should work not only with your belief system, but the actual therapy models themselves need to coincide with what will work for your individual needs. You can enter into a lower cost, one-size-fits-all facility to handle your drinking habit or you can locate a program that will make a program based on your specific needs and goals once treatment is completed.

Are Private Alcohol Rehabs Better than the Public Centers?

This is really not that hard of a question to answer. There are good programs, that cost little to nothing, in Kansas and there are higher cost treatment centers for alcohol abuse that can cost upwards of 30 thousand dollars a month. Just like anything else in life, you get what you pay for. A private treatment center will deliver a better, well-rounded program, due to being able to afford the staff and amenities needed for a well-rounded individual treatment program.

Ultra private rehab or a luxury alcohol addiction program, will have almost the same program options and individual treatment plans as the less expensive private alcohol rehab. The difference being that a luxury or Malibu treatment program, will offer personal trainers, individual meal and menus like that of a 4-star hotel, catering to your every need and want while enrolled in treatment.

If you have stopped drinking and are experiencing the early signs of withdrawal, such as tremors, shaky hands, trouble sleeping, anxiety, fluctuating heart rate, or seizures, seek medical attention immediately. Trying to stop drinking on your own without a medically supervised detox can be very dangerous and even life threatening. Seek help immediately if you are experiencing these symptoms.
